Whatever you focus on grows. So that you don’t blow to smithereens your good feeling mojo, let’s start where the land mines are buried.
If good feeling mojo was your lover, would the following inspire your sweetheart to run to you with gifts of money, love and health or get blasted back to an undesirable past?
- Fussing up because people are idiots, things are complicated and your career or business deals aren’t working… again.
- Wanting money but complaining that the system is rigged so it’s hard to get.
- Can’t figure out why God has broken His promise to you because of what’s happened.
- Feeling worried until you get the next doctor’s report.
- Thinking repeatedly about how someone has done you wrong.
- Looking for satisfaction while blaming, complaining or things being infuriating.
Money, love and health aren’t found on the pity pot vibe. (Oh, and I’ve unsuccessfully tried so hard to be saved from mine.)
Misery loves company. Regardless of what you say you want, if you’re sending silent messages of struggle, suffering and sadness, your energy would bring you more of the same… more of what you feel but don’t want.
If your business or life mirror a Looney Tunes episode, don’t look for the bogey man. Instead, start with good feeling mojo every day.
You can change how you feel by changing your perspective.
“Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough.”
Oprah Winfrey
Once, when my life had fallen apart, I couldn’t feel grateful about anything. I was separated, depressed, and in no mood to focus on business.
Gratitude. Interesting concept. The end.
However, I heard a story about someone who went through hard times, and being grateful was her magic key. She climbed out of the hole she was in, got a great job, new friends and turned her life completely around.
Hmmm, okay. I decided to give it a try with no clue of where to begin.
Suddenly, lost in thought about “woe is me” while walking through a greenbelt at dusk, I snapped out of my trance.
Stories from the news popped in my head about snipers on roof tops in a war torn country. They killed people who had to run across an open space to get water.
But I had zero concern about my physical safety. I had basic needs. Water. No bullets or bombs threatened me. Roof over my head. AC when it’s hot and heat when it’s cold. I was alive. There was so much to appreciate, however I didn’t see it because I was looking in the wrong direction.
I woke up to gratitude and the blessings of how people were there for me. Even though much wasn’t working, a lot was. So I redirected my focus to where I could find gratitude. I began to feel better. As I did, my life got better, too.
“When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.”
Willie Nelson
If you’re looking for an abundance of business, money, love, support or health, focusing on what’s working will bring you more of what’s working.
“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.”
Eckhart Tolle
TIP: Gratitude Creates Good Feeling Mojo
Especially during this time of giving thanks, take time to reflect on what you’re grateful for. The more you’re grateful, the more good feeling mojo you create. The more good feeling mojo you have, the more success you experience.
“Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn’t learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn’t learn a little, at least we didn’t get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn’t die; so, let us all be thankful.”
Buddha
